While Morgestraich is the
best way to see the Lanterns and their comic lampoonery lit
up - the best way to appreciate some of the details you missed
in the wee-hours of the morning is to visit Münsterplatz
on the Tuesday - the second day of
Fasnacht. All the lanterns are gathered together in
one place for the whole day - so you can appreciate the lanterns
both by daylight and night.

Naturally enough, it's one of the more popular set-piece events
as you get to take your time to look at whichever lantern so
takes your fancy. And ponder the ludicrosity of the news being
depicted.
